wild turkey and classical music
Well here's a way to unwind on a Friday after a busy week: wild turkey--not the adult beverage but the real thing and classical music. I've managed to get the public radio station out here with the help of an antenna. The audio messed up on the video otherwise you could hear it loud and clear. The wild turkey are quite ugly. Easy to understand why no one but that wild child Ben Franklin thought it would be a great national bird. Around here they are quite plentiful. My husband says he's going to kill one for Thanksgiving. I say over my dead body! I have "no hunting" signs posted all over this land. However, should the turkey begin to take over I might have to introduce a natural predator--like my killer 11 pound dog, Spike ;-)
At an age when I am old enough to know better, I moved beyond the raised beds of my suburban garden. In October of 2010 I acquired 15 acres of undeveloped land in Southern Indiana. Join me on this journey as I turn my land into a place of rest, retreat and refuge--a place to grow new things--a place called Wildbranch.

moving in!
We have been moving furniture into the house since the last week of September. Still have more to move, but it's a process, just like finding the property and building the house. Since the rooms are cozy, the right piece of furniture needs to be selected. Still searching for a small coffee table and a side chair. Hope to bring the desk, a small love seat and a second bed this weekend.
I've spent several nights sleeping at the house and it is very peaceful. Last night it rained and the rain on the metal room was better than any sleeping pill.
